Areaware Walrus Trinket Box

This figural box represents a “power” animal – a totem for our individual ambitions. Its simple and gestural depiction is intentional – allowing the symbolism of the animal to be maintained. With the addition of hinges, it has the ability to guard important small objects. On the shelf, it is sculpture. On the side table, it’s a totem. On the counter, it offers a hiding spot.
